      Pontefract final siege map

      25/10/2021

      We have recently been contacted by Ben Hardiment, a descendant of Charles Fairfax, uncle of renowned Parliamentarian commander-in-chief during the English Civil War, Sir Thomas Fairfax. Ben has kindly contributed a map of Pontefract Castle’s finalĀ  siege, dated 1648, which he inherited.
